still of course talking about whitney houston. now we're learning details about the funeral. it will not be a public memorial. the family's decided to keep things private, which i think we all can respect. we also have learned too that gospel singer marvin winans, he is going to give the eulogy at the funeral, which will be held at her church there in newark on saturday at noon. if you recognize that last name, it's for good reason, bebe winans and cece winans are the first family of gospel music. he's been chosen to give the eulogy. the families were very, very close. he himself a grammy award-winning gospel singer. he'll be the one to talk at the service. >> if you watched "glee" last night, the irony was -- it was just strange. it was purely coincidental. amber riley sang "i will always love you." producers said this was planned, you know, months ago. they dedicated the show to whitney at the end. but just strange that just days after her death here on their valentine's day special edition of "glee." take a listen, too. it's beautiful. ♪ and i ♪ will always love you â™
